Now I really did it :((

Pretty @Jimmianne! I love the rich yellow gold...I’m so jealous... I have a bunch of yellow gold bands..but they don’t look right on me.
I’m bidding on an ebay band. It ends in a half hour...The bids are climbing but I won’t go any higher..I did increase my bid two times but I went as far as I’ll go...Fingers crossed...I need a band for my right hand finger. Its larger than my left...
I bought a Noemie baguette eternity band to go with Ashlee...I’m hoping to get Ashlee soon...

Love this band @Mamabean.
 
@marcy You lost me explaining Mars...but I think it’s amazing that you saw it...
Have you tried Ricotta cheese in your lasagna? Do you use mozzarella cheese too? I LOVE goat cheese, spring mix greens, with beets in a balsamic dressing with walnuts...:lickout:
Please send some snow to Pennsylvania...I miss it...We only has a light dusting on the grass one time...I don’t think we’re going to get any this year...Boo!
I hate tax season...My husband is a bear...We have an accountant but he sets it all up for him. I just stay clear of him.
Thank you for hoping I win my auction on EBay...I’m going to check now..:pray: Five minutes to go...I can’t look...

@Mamabean i don’t like ricotta cheese. I find it gritty. Yes I use mozzarella in my lasagne and some shredded Parmesan cheese. Marty loves goat cheese. I will gladly send you some snow too but as I told @Tekate I can’t promise what condition it will arrive in when it gets there.
 
Before and after. i cannot get anything done today between reading PS and watching the snow. Messy uncombed new cut, but you get the idea why I’m shouting “freedom!!!”

You have such pretty hair @Jimmianne I love the color!
 
@bling_dream19 I am now on the same med as @Mamabean 's mom, so far its been working, but I thought I had tried it before.. metronidazole gel is what I have. It has been working for the red pustule/bumps but my red face is worse.. I call rosacea the Irish woman's bane, but I notice that Prince Charles has a really bad case of it.. he's redder than an apple half the time I see a pix of him.. there is stuff he could try.. I turn red with anything tomato based and red wine, good think I don't like red wine! maybe white wine too now that I think of it but I don't drink a lot of white wine either, but I don't really get flushed from gin! Bombay especially .. night sweet girl and can't wait to see the new rings!


xoxo

Thanks @Tekate and @missy mine is more underlying redness maybe blood vessels and of coarse gets worse under stress or food triggers. Thanks for letting me know about meds that work. Its crazy when I'm not working and not having any caffeine or alcohol it's a marked difference! Ok I guess I'm quitting my jobs lol jk! New rings are here!!! I'm trying to get good pics but it's taking some time!
 
Ok folks rings are here!!! 20200220_133351.jpg I am thrilled to pieces and very impressed with David Klass! He did a really great job and sent them in a light up box! I've always wanted that experience!
And here she is...light lavender spinel set in Maytal hannah setting, all preloved and set sized by DK. The ring is super comfortable, the halo is super sparkly and the spinel is calming and peaceful just like @missy said.

And now my .75 ctw diamond cocktail ring with a beautiful. 37ct center. She's is 1950s throwback! My two favorite eras are the Ewardian early 1900s and the 1950s! I hope yall like her! 20200220_133721.jpg20200220_133734.jpg20200220_133816.jpg20200220_133818.jpg
I hope everyone is having a great Thursday!
 
@bling_dream19 :kiss2: Absolutely beautiful rings. Gosh I bet you are chuffed. Do you have a favourite?
Love the closed box photos, talk about a tease! :evil2::lol-2:

Thank you @Mamabean means a lot coming from you!

You did a great job finding a setting to fit your spinel..and a Maytal Hannah! Your cocktail ring is very glam...Did you say you had more rings coming?

FABU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
@missy Hola MIssy the MARVELOUS ah rosacea what a pain in the derriere. I have found the oral meds to the best job of taking care of our mutual problem, but my health plans never pay for it :( so I have always been seeking a way to keep the red, pustules (sorry), itchy crap that we go thru. The new metrondizole gel I am using so FAR works great Missy, but it's not sunny nor hot here in HOTLAND Texas it's been rainy, chilly Texas :) Whatever works for a person is what they should do. Ah my souffle! perfect, John loves my souffles! :) I like them, but gimme a chocolate souffle vs a cheese souffle! but as I love John a cheese souffle is always on our menu!

@Niffler75 wow a support dog would be bitchin! wonderful if your son connects.. I love dogs, cats and animals, everyone benefits from animals through love.. xoxo beautiful ring! i love it, kudos to the jeweler!

@canuk-gal oooh sorry your son needs a root canal, be vigilant to ensure he is pain free if you can, my whole jaw problem started with a bad root canal.. I'm sure he will be fine Mom :)

@Mamabean ooh Ashlee can't wait! Lasagne, recipe from my former MIL who's mom and dad were from Italia! ricotta, and mozzarella layered, then a layer of sauce (meat sauce), top will have parmigiana and leftover mozzarella, bake for 40 minutes, I make my own sauce, I use good ricotta and part skim mozzarella, full 4% is too runny, I love Trader Joe's noodles but John doesn't he likes old school boil the and layer (ugh) one can use bechamel sauce with the ricotta and mozz cheese, i"m too lazy to make a bechamel but I love bechamel! :)


@marcy Hola Marcy, the sun finally came out here about 3:15 pm. I think we are in the same time zone or I am one ahead of you. Snow.. miss it, but John doesn't. :( Auti makes up for me living in hotternhell Texas. In Maine Marcy, often the weather apps were
correct, but wrong sometimes too. Ultimately we remember more when they are wrong :) truly an awesome video Marcy. thanks.

@junebug17 :) hi June my sister's birthstone was garnet too, love garnets! xoxoxo

nothing new, nothing done today, just overcast, rainy and blah.. tomorrow morning we have a meeting with the architect! will give you all an update tomorrow..

Happy Friday to everyone tomorrow!

xoxoxo
 
HI:

WOTS all this crazy talk about people wanting snow! :lol-2:

cheers--Sharon
 
@Tekate that is great to hear the sun came out this afternoon. I would miss snow too if we moved. I would not miss ice. We are MT for our time zone; are you CT or MT? Your lasagna sounds delicious. I am having my last piece of frozen lasagna for lunch tomorrow. Good luck with the architect tomorrow.

@canuk-gal I would totally agree we have been over compensated with snow. The iceberg on my lawn is maybe down to 20” now.

@Mamabean I bet if I chipped off some of that iceberg it might make it to you without melting. It’s pretty dirty by now.
 
awesomeness total!

:dance:

Thank you so much!...
would like to think I’m midyears, but afraid time and science will prove otherwise. Meanwhile...

Marcy, thank you for the snow.
I guess you must like me best. :saint:

Sharon, you are right. Crazy to want snow, but I think we “less blessed” forget what it’s like to have too much of the darned stuff. It’ll be 40 degrees here by noon. Of course everyone in the South panics.
Some businesses were closed yesterday, when snow was not even predicted ‘till end of the day, and I’m pretty sure by last evening there was no bread left on the supermarket shelves.

Our “snow storm”

I just realized we haven’t heard from Scandi recently. Have I missed a recent post? A little concerned.

I think we did also! @missy didn't get any either! I feel over compensated!


Sharon, we did get some snow...we cycled the day after we got some lol. Remember? Wait let me find the photos.

Day of snow:

Cycling the day after...still snow on ground

Truth be told it has been a super mild winter and I hope that continues. This is the kind of winter I love. And we got some snow so it's all good. I do enjoy some snow as long as it doesn't last too long. Win win. :appl:

@canuk-gal I am sorry that you got so much snow!

Come move here Sharon and Marcy please. We will make sure you are well taken care of and we have lots of delicious places to enjoy bling shopping too...just saying.

Missy didn’t want any so I’ll take her share..:lol:

Aww you are a true friend! Thank you and done! All our snow from here on in goes to Joanne. Hear that Mother Nature? :sun:

Oh my! That is crazy lol. Why is it that bread goes first? One of the staples I guess haha. We are chilly here today but reaching 50s this weekend woohoo. Cmon Spring.:cool2:

Issy looks so beautiful and colorful and just a lovely sweet baby. LOVE her! Love your photo too. I think @Scandinavian is just busy with life but girl, if you see this check in here with us and let us know you and your mom are A OK. Hugs across the many miles.
